Dakota Fanning in Chanel Couture | CHANEL “Métiers d’Art” Fashion Show

WHO: Dakota Fanning
WHERE & WHEN: CHANEL “Métiers d’Art” Fashion Show 2013 / “The Return by Karl Lagerfeld” Premiere on December 10, 2013.
WEARING: Chanel Haute Couture dress, Brian Atwood shoes

MY VERIDCT: The always lovely Dakota was cute as a button when she attended the Chanel Métiers d’Art fashion show at Dallas Fair Park last night but, before the Pre-Fall 2014 runway presentation, she caught the drive-in styled premiere of designer Karl Lagerfeld’s “The Return” film, which retraces the steps of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel’s reopening of the fashion house in 1954.

The 19-year-old “Very Good Girls” actress selected a rose, blush, black, and deep blue cozy quilted mix pattern drop waist dress from the Fall-Winter 2013 Haute Couture collection, which features triangle tiered detail at the short sleeves and skirt, and a square-cut neckline. I’ll admit, I wasn’t crazy about this dress when it was originally debuted over the summer–but, it looks much better on Dakota. I’m also glad she passed on the wide belt that would’ve weighed her down.

Dakota wore her long blonde locks up in a pretty woven ‘do that drew attention to her fresh and subdued make-up palette. Dainty jewelry, a glossy black lacquered manicure, and a pair of navy satin Brian Atwood “Stearling” platform slingback sandals helped completed her look.
